    Snit needs to be fired, immediately. This was a win, honestly.

    Why does he continue to use Jackson in high leverage situations? There are other options available.

    I hate snit, this is giving games away AGAIN. This is terrible managing, so embarrassing.

    He got that one strikeout against the Nationals with the bases loaded like 2 months ago. So now he's worthy of those situations in Snit's eyes.

    Sometimes, it's OK to play the infielders in their normal ****ing spots too. We are just giving them massive holes.

    IMO, the best option would have been Touki with his sinker vs Ahmed

    This BP sucks and Snitckers use of it sucks even more.

    AA needs to take some of the blame for this ****ty BP.

    It shouldn't have been Luke Jackson, but Touki wasn't pushed much in the minor leagues this year. That was actually the most pitches he's thrown all season. So he most likely was done.

    That's what happens today with protecting pitchers.

    It also shouldn't have been calling for a high fastball either. No one on this team should throw high fastballs except for Folty.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    I'm watching the diamondbacks broadcast. They're flabbergasted as to why Jackson is still pitching

    The Braves are in a pennant race? What the hell is happening? How was pulling him two singles ago a hard decision?
